Differential expression of mitogen-activated protein kinases and immediate early genes fos and jun in thalamus in schizophrenia.

Abstract:

:Despite a growing body of evidence demonstrating that mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathways play an important physiological role in the CNS, little is known about their role and function in various mental disorders including schizophrenia. Our previous studies have shown increased expression of several intermediates of the extracellular signal-regulated (ERK) cascade and downstream transcription targets in cerebellar vermis without any changes in mesopontine tegmentum and Brodmann's area 10 in patients with schizophrenia. Given the evidence for abnormalities in schizophrenia in a neural circuit involving the cerebellum and thalamus, the present study was conducted to examine the expression of MAP kinases extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), c-Jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38, as well as immediate early genes fos (c-fos and fos B) and jun (c-jun, jun B and jun D) using a Western blot analysis and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in postmortem thalamus from schizophrenic and control subjects. There were significant increase in ERK2, c-fos and c-jun protein and mRNA levels in thalamus of patients with schizophrenia relative to controls. No statistically significant differences were found for ERK1, Fos B, Jun B or Jun D proteins in schizophrenic and control subjects. These results taken together with our previous findings provide new evidence for selective abnormalities of distinct MAP kinases and immediate early genes c-fos and c-jun in a circuit involving the thalamus and cerebellum, which may contribute significantly to the pathophysiology of schizophrenia.
